onefinestay's Golden Giveaway This Summer

LONDON, May 31, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

The unhotel promises discounted stays for families of Olympians during London 2012 and a full refund if the athlete wins gold

The squads for the Olympics are being announced right now, which means for families of successful Olympians there's set to be a last-minute rush for places to stay in Central London. With hotel rooms increasingly scarce and prices high, London's luxury apartment provider, onefinestay, is offering a special deal to the families of Olympic competitors, making London 2012 affordable.

The families of competitors in the London 2012 Olympics will receive a 20% discount off their stay during the Games. And, if their support really pays off, they could even land themselves a Golden Giveaway as Gold Medal winners' families will have the entire cost of their stay refunded*.

onefinestay (http://www.onefinestay.com) is the world's first unhotel, a new concept in accommodation which gives visitors the chance to live like a local by staying in a distinctive home while its owner is out of town with the comforts and conveniences of a boutique hotel including; 5* linens, fluffy towels, White Company toiletries and an iPhone with local area recommendations from the owner.

CEO and co-founder of onefinestay, Greg Marsh, says: "This summer's Olympics are set to be a hugely important event for everyone involved, and for competitors and their families especially so. Of course, all Olympians will have bags of support from those closest to them in the run up to the Games, but to miss that on the day just because they can't find a place to stay in London doesn't bear thinking about."

onefinestay now has over 500 exclusive homes to choose from, at prices which range from £150 per night for a comfortable one bedroom apartment in Marylebone W1, to over £1,000 a night for a grand townhouse in South Kensington. Other stylish options available through onefinestay include Grand Designs home Russell Gardens Mews, London's largest houseboat, City Docks or a palatial home in luxurious Knightsbridge.
